This is the old Toronto Zoo Monorail they no longer use {aka The Canadian Domain Ride or AGT [Automated Guideway Transit]}. The Monorail stretches 3-4km before entering the Toronto Zoo. The Monorail has some overgrowth from nearby brush but still clear enough to walk on.

The train operated on a concrete guideway with electricity supplied by rails located above one side of the guideway. Passengers entered and left via doors located at each double row of facing seats. A secondary set of controls was available in the last car of the train to allow it to be reversed into the storage/service area located towards the north end of the zoo property.

In addition to being a quick way to travel between sections of the zoo, the ride provided the only way to view several animals, in remote areas of the zoo. Moose, white-tailed deer and several other exhibits were not accessible from walking paths. The ride operator would provide commentary on the animals visible from the train during the ride.

It should be noted that the "monorail" name is somewhat misleading: it wasn't a true monorail system. The cars ran in a guideway on their own rubber tires.

In March of 1991, 9 people were injured when a train smashed into the rear of another that was stopped between stations. Later that year the Metro Zoo board of directors was warned the propulsion and braking systems needed to be updated to prevent a similar accident.

In July of 1994 37 people were injured, some seriously, when a train lost power while climbing an incline as it left a station stop. It rolled backwards at up to 25mph and crashed into a train in the same station as people were loading/unloading. Stories of deaths and lawsuits are false. Although there was a trial in which found the zoo responsible for an operator that was "inadequately trained", and was fined $43,000C.

The train never reopened after the July 1994 incident.
